SDA Issues Apology for Canceling Yoo Hwe Seung’s Congratulatory Performance

The Seoul International Drama Awards (SDA) has come under fire after making the surprise decision to axe Yoo Hwe Seung’s congratulatory stage. 

The award ceremony was held at KBS Hall on September 25, where many stars were recognized for their talent.

Despite initial announcements, N.Flying’s Yoo Hwe Seung’s congratulatory stage was mysteriously canceled. On the other hand, ZEROBASEONE and NMIXX performed as scheduled.

On September 26, SDA issued an apology, stating, “We apologize for the fact that the scheduled performance by N.Flying’s Yoo Hwe Seung could not take place at the Seoul Drama Awards 2024 ceremony held on September 25.”

Previously, N.Flying’s agency also apologized to the fans saying, “We would like to inform you that the congratulatory performance scheduled for today at the ‘SBS Seoul International Drama Awards 2024’ has been canceled due to a delay on-site. We apologize to the fans who have been waiting and ask for your understanding once again.”

On a fan platform, the 29-year-old K-pop star expressed his disappointment saying that he was waiting backstage when he found out that his performance was abruptly canceled.

According to the awards organizers, technical issues and unforeseen delays during the live broadcast forced the cancellation.

They have since issued an apology, acknowledging Yoo’s hard work and dedication to preparing his stage.
